I’m considering getting dimpleplasty in Korea, so I want to know what the average healing time is after the procedure. How long did it take for swelling, bruising, or any tightness to go down. ---

I had dimpleplasty in Korea last year. Swelling was noticeable for about 1–2 weeks, but bruising faded within 7–10 days. The tightness lasted a bit longer, maybe a month. After that, everything looked and felt more natural. ---

In my case, bruising was very mild and gone within a week. Swelling reduced a lot by week two. It took a couple of months for the dimples to soften into a more natural shape. ---

My swelling lasted longer than I expected almost three weeks. The dimples looked uneven at first, which made me nervous. It did improve over time, but the healing process tested my patience. ---

I had very little downtime. Swelling peaked around day 3–4 and improved steadily after that. By the second week, I felt comfortable going out. ---

I also consider dimpleplasty. Healing took longer than I thought. Swelling stayed for almost three weeks, and the dimples looked too deep at first. It did settle eventually, but it required patience. ---

I got my dimpleplasty done at Hugo Plastic Surgery. My swelling went down after about a week, and it looked natural by the third week. Super happy with the result!
